Instructions for Recipient
Recipient's identification number. For your protection, this form may show
only the last four digits of your social security number (SSN), individual taxpayer
identification number (ITIN), or adoption taxpayer identification number (ATIN).
However, the issuer has reported your complete identification number to the IRS
and, where applicable, to state and/or local governments.
Account number. May show an account or other unique number the payer
assigned to distinguish your account.
Box 1a. Shows total ordinary dividends that are taxable. Include this amount on
line 9a of Form 1040 or 1040A. Also, report it on Schedule B (1040A or 1040), if
required.
Box 1b. Shows the portion of the amount in box 1a that may be eligible for
reduced capital gains rates. See Form 1040/1040A instructions for how to
determine this amount. Report the eligible amount on line 9b, Form 1040 or
1040A.
The amount shown may be dividends a corporation paid directly to you as a
participant (or beneficiary of a participant) in an employee stock ownership plan
(ESOP). Report it as a dividend on your Form 1040/1040A but treat it as a plan
distribution, not as investment income, for any other purpose.
Box 2a. Shows total capital gain distributions from a regulated investment
company or real estate investment trust. Report the amounts shown in box 2a
on Schedule D (Form 1040), line 13. But, if no amount is shown in boxes 2c–2d
and your only capital gains and losses are capital gain distributions, you may be
able to report the amounts shown in box 2a on line 13 of Form 1040 (line 10 of
Form 1040A) rather than Schedule D. See the Form 1040/1040A instructions.
Box 2b. Shows the portion of the amount in box 2a that is unrecaptured section
1250 gain from certain depreciable real property. Report this amount on the
Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain Worksheet–Line 19 in the Schedule D
instructions (Form 1040).
Box 2c. Shows the portion of the amount in box 2a that is section 1202 gain
from certain small business stock that may be subject to an exclusion. See the
Schedule D (Form 1040) instructions.
Box 2d. Shows 28% rate gain from sales or exchanges of collectibles. If
required, use this amount when completing the 28% Rate Gain Worksheet–Line
18 in the instructions for Schedule D (Form 1040).

Box 3. Shows the part of the distribution that is nontaxable because it is a return
of your cost (or other basis). You must reduce your cost (or other basis) by this
amount for figuring gain or loss when you sell your stock. But if you get back all
your cost (or other basis), report future distributions as capital gains. See Pub.
550, Investment Income and Expenses.
Box 4. Shows backup withholding. A payer must backup withhold on certain
payments if you did not give your taxpayer identification number to the payer.
See Form W-9, Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification, for
information on backup withholding. Include this amount on your income tax
return as tax withheld.
Box 5. Shows your share of expenses of a nonpublicly offered regulated
investment company, generally a nonpublicly offered mutual fund. If you file
Form 1040, you may deduct these expenses on the “Other expenses” line on
Schedule A (Form 1040) subject to the 2% limit. This amount is included in
box 1a.
Box 6. Shows the foreign tax that you may be able to claim as a deduction or a
credit on Form 1040. See the Form 1040 instructions.
Box 7. This box should be left blank if a regulated investment company reported
the foreign tax shown in box 6.
Boxes 8 and 9. Shows cash and noncash liquidation distributions.
Box 10. Shows exempt-interest dividends from a mutual fund or other regulated
investment company paid to you during the calendar year. Include this amount
on line 8b of Form 1040 or 1040A as tax-exempt interest. This amount may be
subject to backup withholding. See box 4.
Box 11. Shows exempt-interest dividends subject to the alternative minimum
tax. This amount is included in box 10. See the Instructions for Form 6251.
Boxes 12-14. State income tax withheld reporting boxes.
Nominees. If this form includes amounts belonging to another person, you are
considered a nominee recipient. You must file Form 1099-DIV (with a
Form 1096) with the IRS for each of the other owners to show their share of the
income, and you must furnish a Form 1099-DIV to each. A spouse is not
required to file a nominee return to show amounts owned by the other spouse.
See the 2014 General Instructions for Certain Information Returns.

related to Form 1099-DIV and its instructions, such as legislation enacted after
they were published, go to www.irs.gov/form1099div.
